Firefighters plan to burn up to 294 acres west of the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center and near Upper Beaver Meadows Road, said RMNP spokeswoman Kyle Patterson in a news release. Because the fuel involves mainly grasses and small shrubs, heavy and prolonged smoke is not expected, she said, adding that smoke “will be visible throughout the day of the burn, mostly during the warmest part of the day. With cooler temperatures in the evening, smoke may linger and accumulate in low-lying areas.”
